I look forward and a look back
Yesterday, I met my friends as part of the new year’s eve activities .. As soon as I came, I asked them to go in a round, asking each one to tell us the best 3 things that happened to him in 2004, and the 3 worst things. They were surprised by this little game. After having all say their bests and worsts I started another round to tell the one thing each plan or want to have in 2005, and one other thing that he wants to prevent or doesn’t want to happen in 2005. It all went fine, although we meet 2 to 3 times each week, we learned new things about each other in that game.
Now this triggered a discussion soon after, one of my friends said that we basically live like cats; nothing much in our minds, no real plans, and mostly no future plans. It seems that most of my friends didn’t give much thought about the time that had passed, and what’s coming, and how will they act upon it. As for me, more or less what I have in mind are more like dreams, and so far I didn’t accomplish much of what I have in mind. Looking at next year, I feel challenged and excited, as I plan to beat myself in 2005, and reach what I don’t think I can.
Starting from tomorrow, I will be going daily to a gym, I think that a clear mind need a healthy body, and currently I am far from that :)
